I aggree, that Porsche engine is not a good example of something that is simple to tear down. Some engines are a snap. The Subaru EJ is a good example, but there are some that are even easier than that. Old Chrysler 2.2 and 2.5 turbos are almost absurdly simple:
Plus ONE BILLION to this sentiment right here. I can't be bothered to sit through dozens of matches, so having the best ones picked out like this is wonderful.
Yea, but casual fans don't want to watch a ton of matches. We want to see just a handfull of the best ones. The highlights. These Kotaku posts have been freaking awesome because they hand-pick the best matches so we don't have to sort through them ourselves. It's also a great place for commenters to come in and post…
Link plz?
Haha, that was great. So satisfying to watch some cheesing bastard have to eat shit.
I'm not talking about hunting mate. I'm talking about extermination. The cartridge described above is only effective in the hands of a professional exterminator. To quickly and cleanly slaughter a white tail with it requires hitting it at the base of the skull, in the brain stem. This method will kill one instantly.…
Man, there's a reason why this aside Callie made about hunting as a solution is true:
It's a CCR, so it was made pretty early on in Koenigsegg's history. They didn't have the cash to make custom electronics like they do now. They had to use some off-the-shelf stereo and just cram it in wherever they could fit it. They have all that interior stuff much more well-integrated these days:
It really impresses upon the viewer how monotonous the engine notes are. Whoooole lot of SBCs sounding exactly the same. All of the vehicles are so wonderfully different and crazy-looking, but they all have an identical mouse motor roar. That said, the super-quick Hemi-powered sled that shows up at 1:33 sounds all the…
The show has had its ups and downs. First two seasons were fantastic. After that they did fall into a few reality TV tropes. Contestants were split into red and blue teams at the start of the season, and when a team lost they would vote for two of their members to go to a skill-based elimination challenge. In theory…
Lol, came here to say this. Konami code FTW
Try to overdose on this:
For a nice antithesis to this ignorant macho TV bullshit, the first five episodes of History Channel's shooting competition show "Top Shot" has been pretty great. Specifically, the participation of one Gabby Franco:
I've been in a couple of RX8s, all manual, and I like everything about how they drive except for that damn Wankel engine. Shifter is wonderful, chassis is sublime, balance is perfect and the motor is shit. There is just no grunt, at all, ever. It makes the car feel really slow when you're driving it at anything other…
As a long-time resident, Indiana is funny like that. It's as if a lot of folks here wish Indiana was part of the south. They drive lifted trucks, wave confederate flags, and look down their noses at minorities, but in reality they are a bunch of fucking posers and the proper southern states know it. That Subway kid…
Dammit, I never get to use this image macro!
As someone who has attended the event in the flesh (back in 2011, last year for dirt), Red Bull's coverage was extremely disappointing. Apparently they took over the entire mountain, pushing out the local talent that provided radio coverage of the event in the past. When I attended the event, a local radio station…
Was anyone else extremely disappointed in the video of Loeb's run up Pike's Peak? I mean, compare the dogshit that Red Bull put out to the Go-Pro sponsored video of Tajima's run from 2011:
Well clearly, because men just can't help themselves. Men want to fuck 24/7 and women only kinda sorta wanna fuck some of the time. Since they're the ones closer to never wanting to fuck, the onus is on them to keep us all in line. Obviously :-\
I just calls em like i sees em.
